Hatskin, also owned 3 MJHL teams. Part of the agreement was the continuation of the MJHL, Hatskin sold his 3 teams to local interests, and the Winnipeg Warriors became the West Kildonan North Stars, the St. James Braves became the St. James Canadians, and the Winnipeg Rangers became the St. Boniface Saints. These 3 teams joined the Winnipeg Monarchs to form the new MJHL. The Selkirk Steelers, however joined the Central Manitoba Junior Hockey League.
